First-aid measures

Inhalation

Effects: May cause allergic respiratory reaction.

Symptoms: Shortness of breath, wheezing and coughing. The effect of inhalation may be delayed.

First Aid: IF INHALED: If breathing is difficult, remove to fresh air and keep at rest in a position comfortable for breathing. If experiencing respiratory symptoms: Call a POISON CENTER or doctor/ physician.

Skin contact

Effects: May cause slight irritation.

Symptoms: Slight irritation.

First Aid: Remove and wash contaminated clothing before re-use. Wash off immediately with plenty of water. If symptoms persist, call a doctor. Show the safety

data to the doctor in attendance.

Eye contact

Effects: May cause slight irritation.

Symptoms: Slight irritation.

First Aid: Hold eye open and rinse slowly and gently with water for 15-20 min. Remove contact lenses, if present, after the first five minutes, then continue rinsing the eye. If symptoms persist, call a doctor. Show the safety data sheet to the doctor in attendance.

Ingestion

Effects: Ingestion may cause gastro-intestinal irritation.

Symptoms: Irritation.

First Aid: Rinse mouth with water. If swallowed Call a POISON CENTRE or doctor/physician if exposed or if you feel unwell. Show the safety data sheet to the doctor in attendance.

Fire-fighting measures

Suitable extinguishing media: Standard procedure for chemical fires; foam, water spray, dry chemical or carbon dioxide.

Hazardous combustion products: On burning, this material may generate toxic gases of combustion such as oxides of carbon, nitrogen and sulphur (COx, NOx and SOx) just like any organic material.

Specific hazards arising from the chemical: May cause an allergic respiratory reaction.

Protective equipment and precautions for fire fighters: As in any fire, wear self-contained breathing apparatus and full protective gear.

Accidental release measures

Personal precautions

Wear suitable personal protection.

Respiratory Protection: Maintain adequate ventilation. When workers are facing concentrations above the exposure limit they must use appropriate certified respirators. Respirator with a particle filter (EN 143). P3 filters are recommended.

Eye protection: Safety glasses with side-shields. Avoid contact with eyes.

Skin Protection: Wear protective gloves/clothing.

Hand Protection: Use protective gloves that meet the minimum requirements of EN420 when handling solid products. Gloves that meet the additional requirements of EN374-2 should be worn when handling of liquid products. Practical experience has shown that nitrile rubber, butyl rubber, natural rubber (latex) and polyvinyl chloride (PVC) gloves offer adequate protection. There is no additional material, thickness, or breakthrough time requirements. Chemical resistant gloves, as defined according to EN374-3 are not required.

Environmental precautions

Prevent the material from entering surface water. Do not discharge directly to a water source. If accidental spillage or washings enter drains or watercourses contact the local Environmental Authorities

Methods for cleaning up

Use appropriate personal protection. Avoid contact with the product. Contain spilled product. Collect spilled

material by non-dispersive methods or with a vacuum cleaner equipped with a high efficiency filter.  After spillage avoid generating aerosols or dust from dried preparation. Do not sweep, brush, use compressed air, which can create aerosols.  Avoid splashing and high pressure washing. Provide for sufficient ventilation. Wash with plenty of water.

Handling and storage

Handling

Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice.  Avoid contact with skin, eyes and clothing. Wear suitable gloves and eye/face protection. Ensure adequate ventilation. Avoid formation of dust and aerosols. Provide appropriate exhaust ventilation at places where dust is formed. Avoid accumulation of dust. Avoid breathing dust or spray mist. Conduct regular cleaning of equipment, work area and clothing.

Storage

Keep container tightly closed in a cool, dry and well-ventilated place.
